Remote Receiver Jammer

The portable remote receiver jammer was developed during the Clone Wars to scramble battle droid remote processor links at short range, rendering

the droids useless. The jammer incorporates a transmitter mounted on the chassis or prosthetic shoulder and a wrist mounted computer controller.

Remote receiver jammers have three significant weaknesses: They have an extremely short range; datalinks are notoriously difficult to disrupt; and many droids have backup processors. A remote receiver jammer can be activated as a standard action, and the jammer affects all droids with remote receivers and no backup processors. When the jammer is activated, the user using the jammer makes a Computer Use check. At the start of any affected droid's turn, compare the

results of the Computer Use check to the droid's Will save; if the Computer Use check is equal to or higher than the droid's Will save, the droid

can take no actions and is flat-footed until the start of its next turn. The user activating the jammer must activate it each turn, making a new Computer Use

check each time.
